Since the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry commenced, about 37 witnesses have testified at the hearings. A dozen witnesses are expected to testify over the next few months as phase two of the commission gets underway. On Monday, two new witnesses are expected to appear, including Major-General Anthony Gopaul, the acting deputy provincial commissioner for the South African Police Service (Saps) in KwaZulu-Natal.
During a press briefing last year, Major-General Anthony Gopaul disclosed that the criminal records of James Stuart Sharnick were tampered with by a Saps employee. Crime Intelligence head Dumisani Khumalo has previously testified at the Madlanga commission that Scharnick has a criminal history, including carjacking and vehicle theft. The discovery came during an audit prompted by Scharnick’s public statements following the testimony at the Madlanga commission.
